CandidateStatements.com Adds Web 2.0 Tools to Personalized Recruiting Platform, Delivering Unrivaled Candidate Experience

Revamped release allows recruiters to add audio and video testimonials when creating personalized candidate websites

Rocklin, Cal. (PRWEB) January 28, 2009 -- Total Rewards Software today announced the addition of Web 2.0 capabilities to CandidateStatements.com, its personalized, candidate experience platform. With this latest release, HR recruiters can now enhance their company's personalized messaging by leveraging Web 2.0 capabilities such as audio, video and real-time candidate communications.

CandidateStatements.com is the first on-demand platform that dynamically creates personalized candidate websites that highlight the value of an employer's combined compensation and benefits program, while delivering "employer of choice" messaging. The unique recruitment platform conveys personalized total compensation (http://www.totalcompbuilder.com) value, educates candidates on the company's benefit programs, delivers "employer of choice" messaging and promotes the company's history, mission and culture.

"Traditional recruiting technologies such as applicant tracking systems and job boards on career sites were designed to improve efficiencies and bring down recruiting costs," said Ray O'Donnell, President and co-founder of Total Rewards Software, "However, Web 2.0 opens the door to a whole new world of personalized capabilities for candidates who are accustomed to high-tech social networking."

"By providing a company with a platform to communicate all the components of pay and the value-added components of a job, Total Rewards' CandidateStatements.com has created a unique opportunity: a company can state its case as employer of choice at a critical juncture, while showing a candidate the total rewards (http://www.totalcompbuilder.com) of the job," wrote expert Paula Santonocito in the recruiting publication AIRS.

CandidateStatements.com can be licensed as a stand-alone application or as an optional module within the Total Rewards Software suite of on-demand, total compensation statement (http://www.totalcompbuilder.com) software products.

Enwisen’s AnswerSource HR Service Delivery Suite Sees Sales Grow 233% in 2008

Enwisen’s AnswerSource HR Service Delivery Suite Sees Sales Grow 233% in 2008

Enwisen, the leader in SaaS-based HR communication solutions that improve the delivery of HR services while reducing the costs, today announced that its multi-tiered AnswerSource HR Service Delivery solution sales grew by 233% in 2008. The growth is largely attributed to proven success in helping customers achieve hard-dollar reductions in the annual cost, per employee, for HR services such as help desk staffing, benefits, onboarding, technology and more. The service delivery platform integrates Enwisen’s AnswerSource HR Shared Services/Case Management and HR Knowledgebase/Decision Support solutions. Both then integrate to an employer’s existing employee portal – or to Enwisen’s portal platform, which unifies all HR service delivery and related transactions with a common interface via single sign on.

Novato, CA (PRWEB) January 28, 2009 -- Enwisen, the leader in SaaS-based HR communication solutions that improve the delivery of HR services while reducing the costs, today announced that its multi-tiered AnswerSource HR Service Delivery solution sales grew by 233% in 2008. The growth is largely attributed to proven success in helping customers achieve hard-dollar reductions in the annual cost, per employee, for HR services such as help desk staffing, benefits, onboarding, technology and more. The service delivery platform integrates Enwisen’s AnswerSource HR Shared Services (http://www.enwisen.com/solutions/hr_shared_servicescallcenter.html) / Case Management and HR Knowledgebase/Decision Support solutions. Both then integrate to an employer’s existing employee portal – or to Enwisen’s portal platform, which unifies all HR service delivery and related transactions with a common interface via single sign on.

Enwisen’s service delivery model:

1.    Allows employees to get their own answers to HR questions – via the portal and knowledgebase – as often as 90% of the time. Integration of the knowledgebase with most popular self-service solutions – providing information in context to events – allows employees to complete most HR transactions online as well

2.    Helps HR Shared Services/Call Centers – accessing the same knowledgebase – to respond to more calls with fewer reps, and promotes first call resolution.

3.    Helps employees understand and select more cost-effective healthcare options.

Customers have reported meeting their Key Performance Indicators in just 4 months after deployment, which takes an average of 16-20 weeks, with minimal customer resources required. Sample KPIs include reducing annual employee costs for HR services by 20-50%; staffing help desks with just one customer service rep to 1,000 employees; achieving first call resolution 90% of the time or higher; driving employees toward more cost-effective health plans; and reducing resources required for onboarding.

The benefits of the multi-tiered HR service delivery model are also the foundation of a recent Gartner Research Report1 which stated, “In this economic climate, HR organizations are under great pressure on several fronts. They must reduce HR administrative costs and free up time to focus on more-strategic activities. A properly implemented multitier HR service delivery model will free the time of HR domain experts while providing high-quality service at a lower cost.” The report mentions Enwisen as a comprehensive provider of employee service management software solutions.

“At a time when HR professionals are challenged with finding ways to cut costs – often at the sacrifice of services – our customers are actually finding ways to improve HR service delivery at costs up to 50% less per employee then what was previously spent. Enwisen’s proven ability to put real-dollar return on investment behind the over-used ‘do more with less’ mantra, heard in times of a downturn economy, has led to growth of 233% in our service delivery model solution in 2008. We expect this trend to grow even more in 2009 due to the affordability of the solution and how quickly savings can be realized,” said Wally Smith, Enwisen’s CEO.

HR executives, IT professionals and HR Shared Services/Call Center directors interested in learning more about the Enwisen HR Service Delivery Model are encouraged to register for a complimentary webinar on February 18, at 11 a.m. PT. Registration: www.enwisen.com/webinars

Peopletoucher.com Launches LinkedIn Search Engine for Salespeople and Recruiters

Peopletoucher.com Launches LinkedIn Search Engine for Salespeople and Recruiters

LinkedIn members can easily create complex searches and target specific executive levels.

Boston, MA (PRWEB) January, 28, 2009 -- Peopletoucher.com, a site focused on innovative web-based resources and techniques for salespeople and recruiters, announced the release of their LinkedIn search engine (http://www.peopletoucher.com/linkedinsearch/).

"LinkedIn's built-in search is great for casual users, but recruiting and business development pros who use the networking site to find sales prospects (http://www.peopletoucher.com/) and job candidates need more sophisticated search options," said Chris, co-founder of Peopletoucher.com. "Creating an effective search for the decision makers at a Fortune 500 account is very tedious. For example, searching for director or VP-level executives in the data center division of the IT group at AT&T, you'd need a long string of search terms and boolean operators to narrow down millions of contacts to a handful of the right people. Our interface eliminates the hassle."

The Peopletoucher.com LinkedIn search engine presents a number of enhancements over traditional form-based searching. Commonly-used terms can be saved in an 'inventory' format, allowing search settings to be re-used for every new target account or job placement.

Rather than use drop-down menus, slider bars control settings such as location radius and seniority level, an interface common on search sites like Kayak.com. The RankFilter slider matches only the specific seniority level needed; manager, director, VP, or C-Level are the tiered options.

"LinkedIn is an excellent business development resource for the sales and recruiting community. We hope to make networking easier and more effective for this small but growing portion of its user base," said Chris.

Purkinje Announces EMR Promotions in Support of National Healthcare Reform Initiatives

Purkinje Announces EMR Promotions in Support of National Healthcare Reform Initiatives

Purkinje makes Electronic Medical Records adoption affordable for all physicians by eliminating most upfront investment

St. Louis, MO (PRWEB) January 28, 2009 -- Purkinje, a leading software and service partner to physicians, announced today that, for a limited time, it will offer free training and implementation services to all new customers, in an effort to accelerate Electronic Medical Records adoption and in support of the current administration's healthcare transformation initiatives. Practices that choose the Purkinje EMR during the month of February 2009 will receive free training and implementation services.

According to recent studies, the high upfront cost of most EMRs is one of the main reasons for slow technology adoption, particularly among small physician practices. While Purkinje's web based subscription model has eliminated all software upfront costs, training fees prove to be a hardship for most physicians in this troubled economy.

"We believe that there is something inherently wrong with a system that forces physicians to apply for a loan in order to gain access to EMR technology" said Margalit Gur-Arie, Executive Vice President at Purkinje. With inefficient reimbursement rates and a fragmented healthcare system, Primary Care physicians, in particular, are experiencing increasing financial challenges in providing adequate patient care.

Priced for the small and medium-sized practice, Purkinje's Web-based, software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions relieve physicians from costly software and hardware investments. The Purkinje integrated EMR and Practice Management System is currently available for $399 per-provider-per-month. According to Margalit, Purkinje decided to absorb the training costs, for a limited time, while exploring long term strategies to make EMR technology more affordable.

For more information call 866-935-8069, or visit http://www.purkinje.com/ehr/careseries.cfm

About Purkinje: Purkinje partners with physicians to help them save time, maximize income, and provide optimal care to their patients. The company offers a unified suite of solutions in the areas of practice management, electronic health records, personal health records, and electronic prescribing which incorporate innovative decision support and workflow enhancing tools. Additionally, Purkinje provides a complete Revenue Cycle Management solution that further maximizes efficiency, cost savings, income and timely reimbursement. Purkinje has over 70 employees and is based in St. Louis, Mo. For more information, please visit http://www.purkinje.com
